Angela Truszkowska (born Sophia Camille Truszkowska, May 16, 1825 – October 10, 1899) was a Polish religious sister who has been beatified by the Roman Catholic Church. Foundress of the Congregation of Sisters of St. Felix of Cantalice Third Order Regular of St. Francis of Assisi (Felician sisters), she forged one of the first active-contemplative communities that, nearly a century and a half later, would grow to include more than 1,800 sisters over four continents serving in an array of ministries.
